This change restores the missing log messages for kexts listed in the `KextsToBlock` section of `config.plist`. Users noticed that messages like "Allow IOSkywalk Downgrade" (which is a comment label for blocking `com.apple.iokit.IOSkywalkFamily`) were no longer appearing in `bdmesg`. The implementation iterates through the `KextsToBlock` array, evaluates whether each entry should be active based on user settings and macOS version compatibility, and logs the result using the `DBG` macro. This logging mirrors the behavior of other patch types in Clover, providing transparency into which kexts are being blocked during the boot process without affecting the actual blocking logic.
